Likely because it has a headphone output based on the RNHP.

As is the headphone ampLikely because it has a headphone output based on the RNHP.
Based on the headphone output circuit in Rupert Neve Designs’ acclaimed 5060 Centerpiece Desktop Mixer, the Precision Headphone Amplifier is a dedicated 24V reference-quality headphone amplifier with specifically-calibrated inputs, housed in a beautiful aluminum & mahogany chassis.

Can probably add the Schiit Mjolnir 3 to the unreleased/to be debated list. Though it will be a limited run too
are there any details about the mjolnir 3.

It would be great if there was some kind of 'shoot-out' between these amps-- or some more comparisons/description generally. Guess it's hard to find the wherewithal and time/expense commitment to do a 'meta' test like that.

There are multiple great amps out there, so I don't think that just one specific model would win such a brawl. Cans factor in a lot here and such a test surley is going to be A LOT of work. Still, highly entertaining stuff to read for sure

Mjolnir 3?
I feel like the BHA-1 would be my endgame. I only listened to it once but I was impressed.Benchmark HPA-4. Bryston BHA-1. Violectric several models. Ferrum.
I’m interested to hear what you come up with.
I had a chance to audition it on multiple occasions and enjoyed it, as well. I think my personal tastes lean towards the clean and clinical. I've tried to enjoy more "coloured" amps but must admit that I prefer analytical amps, overall. If I want to change the sound, I rather EQ or just swap out headphones.I feel like the BHA-1 would be my endgame. I only listened to it once but I was impressed.

I've just seen an advert for the 'reimagined' HeadAmp CFA3. Looks interesting.
From the feedback i've seen about this brand i believe Lejonklou Giella Pi deserve a spot in this list...

Edit: And what about Phatlab RASA or Saeq Hyperion Ge ?
I would also add in the debated list : Either Pathos InPol Ear or Aurium, Nuprime AMG HPA, Cocktail HA500H, Lector Zum-H
